Watto's Junk Yard / Re: 2007 DVD Releases Thread

Looking forward to ROBOTECH:  The Shadow Chronicles which is due out next month.  I can't believe it's been 20 years since there was a new chapter in that particular saga.

Interesting.  And Father's Day is somewhat near the actual 30th anniversary, isn't it?

They definitely look good.  But the prices are getting a little too steep, and it seems like idea-wise Gentle Giant is behind the curve between Sideshow and Attakus.

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Target "Battle of Felucia" Battle Pack

I ran the DCPI for this battle packl that I posted in the DCPI thread.  The number's valid even though the store I went to didn't have any in stock.

I'd definitely like to see some loose pics of this set, considering the confusion about the troopers.  It's definitely odd that they would retool the Clone Commander for the generic Clones, but then I guess the Evolutions Clone is expensive to manufacture.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Previews Exclusive Death Star Briefing 7-Pack

I picked up this set today.  Very cool.  I haven't opened it yet, but I'm looking forward to it.  I know that I definitely want to try preserving the packaging insert, as it depicts the conference table reasonably well for a piece of cardboard.

Picked up a Death Star Briefing 7-pack at a local comic shop today.  Very cool!  At last, I've got a General Tagge figure!!!

I have seen zero reports in the various forums of the WalMart wave being found.  I think these are still several weeks away from seeing the pegs.

That's sports writers.  I have zero respect for sports writers.  Those guys are all about selling papers and finding something to write about in their columns and that's it.  It would be nice if they would actually look at just how much the Saints were overhauled during the offseason.  I think the only reason they're throwing around the America's team thing is because a number of people around the country are genuinely pulling for them after the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina and the team being displaced for a year.

I like the Saints for a few reasons.  I wouldn't call them the new America's team by any stretch.  But I think that people want good things for New Orleans since things are still so messed up in NOLA as well as the rest of the Gulf region.  The storm was devastating, and if the Saints can give those people SOMETHING to keep their spirits high, then I'm all for it.

As for the team itself, I think they did some good things for themselves in the offseason.  Getting Drew Brees was big.  He's a good QB who makes the right decisions.  Deuce McAllister coming back after his ACL injury has been great.  Marques Colston is probably the best rookie WR this year.  Sean Payton has been doing really well in his first season as a head coach.  Oh, and did I mention Reggie Bush?  He got off to a slow start, but he looks like he's going to be a great pro.  So they're comparable with a lot of teams as far as their skill positions go.  But I'm still puzzled about why the Redskins were able to manhandle them.

Here, here.  We already got the Blackhole Stormtrooper.  Are people expecting a red Stormtrooper now?  I know that whenever I've been at a Con and I've seen this guy in red Stormtrooper armor, I've been somewhat uncomfortable with the whole idea.

It's the Saga Legends Clone Trooper.  Go to the listing page and check out the item number.  I cross referenced that against an item number that I found on one of the many rumor lists.  It verified that this Clone Trooper is part of the Saga Legends line.

So far I've received 3 of the 4 I sent in for.  Haven't opened any just yet.  But I am surprised to see them making good on these in about 5 or 6 weeks time.
